The junior brother dealt with the surgery on the operating table with ease, which made Director Shi itch to try his hand at surgery again, if the opportunity arose.
Yang Ping paused the surgery to have lunch, and before leaving, he instructed Song Zimo and Xu Zhiliang, "Let Director Fang rest, and Song Zimo, you guide Xu Zhiliang to slowly separate the section of the inferior vena cava."
The resection of the inferior vena cava and tumor was the easiest among the eight organs to be removed ex-vivo. To save on surgery time, Yang Ping had Song Zimo continue the operation to complete this step.
Song Zimo understood the professor's words; without the professor's nanny-like assistance, it was impossible for Director Fang to handle such surgery. If they still let Director Fang be the chief surgeon, it would definitely be counterproductive and there'd be no way to salvage the situation if things went awry.
